SB Nation - Over The MonsterIts fun to compare now, because the future is so bright, but wow, that 2012 team was so miserable Just read the box score from that game. I recognized every name except for one. Who on God's green earth is Che-Hsuan Lin?

I'm sure you could find a website that has an entire player page dedicated to him, complete with stats and a scouting report. Not sure where you could look though. www.soxprospects.com/exprospects.htm

Filled in for Ellbury in 2012 after an injury. Wikipedia gives you the whole picture.

I recognized every name except for one. Who on God's green earth is Che-Hsuan Lin? Many of us viewed Lin as the future CF for the Red Sox... At least for a while. Plus defender with a plus-plus arm and good on base skills. Alas the power never developed and he was exposed at the higher levels. I'm guessing you haven't been following prospects long, because he was a pretty good one for a while.

Went to the 2008(?) Futures Game at the old Yankees Stadium, got to see him hit a 3-run HR & win the games MVP. Thus ending a streak of MVP winners going on to have successful MLB careers.

And then the Astros tried to turn him into a pitcher (see "plus-plus arm" above) and it didn't take. He was literally what the most hyperbolic comments about Bradley last year were, basically (that sound right to everyone?)
Part of the legend of Lin was when we interviewed Chris Province (at least I think it was him) and asked about which teammate he was most impressed by, and he mentioned that it looked like Lin was on roller skates out there in center field he was so graceful.

Pure speculation: Sox don't think Castillo will be in Pawtucket very long, and plan to promote Tekotte and Tavarez, and activate Guzman, once he's in Boston.
EDIT: Or, if Guzman is actually hurt, promote Miller and Mars as well.

Miller LF, Dubon 2B, Procyshen C, Longhi RF, Devers DH, Chavis 3B, Guerra SS, Monge CF, Tellez 1B, Callahan SP.
Good to see Dubon back in there after taking one to the smush. No such luck with Meyers yet.
Interesting that A) Longhi playing outfield isn't a dead thing yet, and B) that it looks like Procyshen, at least in the early going, may be getting the "starter's" part of the catching timeshare with Moore. My guess is that's due to Moore's inexperience at the position and wanting to concentrate on getting him work behind the scenes.

Must remind myself that we got Moncada/Chavis/Kopech/Espinosa/Acosta, so cannot complain.
Edit: Must remind Sox not to draft HS pitcher this year
